Download DansGuardian 2.9.3.0

DansGuardian unfortunately does not help you improve or manage your dance moves, but it does help you filter internet content. Multiple methods are used for filtering, allowing you to search by url, domain, content phrase, PICS, MIME and file extensions. In addition, it can filter and limit POST data that users send out. For more information, we refer you to this page. The developers released version 2.9.3.0 in the development branch with the following changes:

Version 2.9.3.0:

• Added NTLM Authentication support.
• IP Auth plugin now supports X-Forwarded-For headers.
• Added Persistent connection support to allow pass through of a number of protocols like NTLM and others that break without persistent connections. It also should improve performance.
• Added better support for filter/infection bypass mode “-1” setting.
• Added configurable category list thresholding where you can configure it to only show the top phrase categories matched.
• Performance enhancements to phrase filtering.
• Added infection bypass mode (with optionally only allow on scan error).
• Multiple auth plugins now allowed.
• Embedded URL (links, images) extraction & weighting to allow sites with lots of links to banned domains to be more likely to be denied.
• Now marks content & URL modifications in the logs.
• Added Hungarian & Portuguese Brazilian language files.
• Fixed URL regular expression search & replace.
• Fixed hexdecodecontent handling of a page’s last few bytes.
• Fix for empty pages with gzip & zlib encoding.
• Fixed content-length header for pages with content modifications.

Version 2.9.2.0:

• Filter groups now define a “filtering mode”: banneduserlist and exceptionuserlist support have been removed, and replaced with the concept of a user being a member of a group which is in banned/filtered/unfiltered mode.
• Added plugin-based authentication system – proxy and identd auth methods are now provided as plugins.
• Added auth by IP plugin – maps individual IPs, IP ranges & subnets to filter groups.
• Download managers support optional extension/mimetype inclusion lists, for additional limiting of which requests get handled by a given manager.
• Fancy download manager supports HTML templates.
• Added client hostname display for banned pages (new placeholder available for HTML templates; new parameter for CGI).
• Page weights are now explicitly logged against all filtered requests (not just as part of the “reason” string on weighted phrase banned requests).
• Now includes a lot of example content and URL regexps.
• Now includes latest phrase lists.
• Fixed PICS enable/disable option fixed (PICS now disabled by default).
• Fixed filter bypass links cannot bypass the blocking of files virus scanned and found to be infected: you can now only download known infected files by being a member of an exception filter group (if contentscanexceptions is disabled), or by being in a group with disablecontentscan set.
• Fixed improved extension detection for downloads from CGI scripts – fewer downloads can now slip through the net.
• Fixed exceptionvirusmimetypelist support (ie it now works).
• Fixed improved behavior of logclienthostnames option.
• Fixed configure script checks that the installed PCRE version is recent enough, if building with PCRE support.

Version 2.9.1.0:

• Added Deep URL scanning to spot URLs in URLs to for example block images in google images.
• Added Advanced advert blocking, including an option not to log advert blocks (DG now includes advert domain/URL lists from squidGuard, with added categorization, to demonstrate this feature).
• Added Korean PICS support.
• Added new phrase filtering mode: looks only at contents of title & meta tags.
• Added case insensitive detection of headers retrieved from web servers which don’t obey standards.
• PCRE support is now optional at configure time (–with-pcre; disabled by default).
• dansguardian.org removed from exceptionsitelist, and a rule added to bannedregexpurllist, to prevent accidental access to the DG sample virus repository.
• Firefox DoS fix in contentregexplist (commented out by default to conserve CPU).
• Fixed Gray URL list checking scans greyurllist, not bannedurllist.
• Fixed support for matching multiple URLs which differ only by a suffix.
• Fixed ClamD/KavD so they now run as both the same user & group as DG and successfully access temp files.

Version 2.9.0.1:

• Designed from scratch easily pluginable download management system which works with the…
• Designed from scratch content scanner system with a simple plugin system which makes it easy to write new content scanners such as the included AV. It can also chain multiple scanners so you could use more than one AV engine for example. Other nice things include in-memory scanning if the plugin supports it saving writing to disk.
• Download manager is compatible with WGET and software updates and will switch to a fancier version with percent graph when used with a browser.
• Download manager is secure as each download is keyed to the original downloader.
• No dependance on libtool or pkg-config unlike the original 2.9 AV version.
• Added time/day controls support for lists.
• Added category support so when it says banned site it says what category.
• General speed and code improvements.
• New code style guide produced.
• Code is now in the new style.
• Ported to automake and autoconf for a more standard and logical code maintenance.
• Developer documentation is now provided online to describe the code better.
• Regular expression content replacement is improved so back references work so browser vulnerabilities can usually be automagically removed.
• Added URL regular expression replacement so you can force safe search in google or redirect people to a different site.
• Long log lines are now intelligently truncated.
• port wine
• Multiple command line options are now possible.
• The compile time options are displayed with a -v.
• Anonymized logs option for countries with strict privacy laws like Germany.
• Added a -Q option which allows a restart and a full config change for example.
• Added regular expression exception URLs.
• Added the ability to listen on N IPs rather than 1 or all.
• The latest phrase lists from Fernand (phrase maintainer).
